MISSION STATEMENT

The Jeffrey Foundation is committed to serving children with special
needs and their families through its therapeutic education and
recreational programs and through its family support services. The
challenges of a special needs child can be insurmountable. The
Jeffrey Foundation, through high-quality programming and support
services, helps both the child and the family to successfully meet the
challenges posed by developmental disabilities, autism, multiple
handicaps, poverty, abuse, abandonment and neglect.

The Foundation also strives to extend its services to typical children
through its programs of inclusion and outreach so that the
community may benefit from theses additional resources.

The mission of The Jeffrey Foundation is to make life more
productive and happier for all these children and their families. Our
philosophy is that disabled and handicapped persons, properly and
sensitively nurtured, can learn to enjoy recreation and education
programs and can achieve dignity and self-esteem despite physical
and mental limitations.

Our philosophy further embraces the concept that typical children
who are included in many of these programs will benefit from
socialization, recreational and educational opportunities to which
they might not otherwise have access.
